Our dogs love to play and they are especially interested in any toys that can be stuffed with snacks and treats. Obviously, that puts some serious potential for danger in the mix.

That’s why we’ve put together this list of the best plush dog toys for aggressive chewers.
These are tested and approved plush dog toys that are actually quite durable.

The Tick 12" Plush Dog Toy Squirrel is fun and long lasting. It has 3 squeakers inside, and a squeaker can be removed easily. It's made from extremely soft plush material and is light in weight, so it can be carried around easily.
The squeaker is very loud so you're sure your dog will notice it. Some customer review that the squeaker broke after two days of being played with. Others say their dog loved it so much that it gets a bit rough and the squeaker is the first to break.
The stuffing in the Tick 12" Plush Dog Toy Squirrel is all polyester which means it has a lot of give, but can also be a choking hazard if your dog breaks it off. It also has a very strong, non-inebriating, synthetic leather smell which can be off-putting for some.

It’s great for interactive play as your dog will try their hardest to get all the pieces out of the squirrel’s head.
This toy can also be used as a cuddly toy for calmer play sessions. It’s durable, and we definitely like the fact that it’s made from all-natural materials. The squeakers are the only questionable part, but overall a great dog toy.
